A good news on the visibilty front is a newspaper in India, in my region, has started publishing pictures of my paintings everyday for the last 15 days.

Better still, this is a newspaper meant for the lowest stratum of the Indian society - people disadvantaged both on the class and caste front. The newspaper is extremely poor-resourced and I do not know th exact circulation but it may not be more than 10000 copies.

It is not that I do not get publicity in mainstream there. Leading newspapers - both english and our language - have really gone out of way to publicise my exhibitions or give more-than-due coverage to myself.And they have circulation running into tens of thousands of copies.

But somehow this is more gratifying because it will reach the people for whom I try to speak.
